Obsessive messages


Remember how I wrote a week ago Madonna's voicemail's to ex lover Jim Albright were being auctioned? Well, as a preview, one of them was transcribed and given to the press. These were voicemails Madonna left on Albright's answering machine while she was on her Girlie Show World Tour 1993.

2:48 p.m.: (In a sweet, girlish voice) Hello? Is anybody there? Hello? Are you still sleeping? Hello? Baby?

Umm . . . I got your letter. It was really sweet. I guess I should call you back?

Umm . . . I'm going to go running in 20 minutes. Uh . . . I'll call you back. Maybe you're still sleeping and the phone will wake you up. Or else, where would you be? Football game? Playing basketball? Hmmmm? I'll call you back.

2:33 p.m.: Hi, baby. It's me again. OK. Well, I'll just try calling you later, or you can call me. Leave me a message. OK? Bye.

2:35 p.m.: (In an aggrieved tone) Honey, what are you doing? I know you're there because your phone was just busy. And your phone is clicking and doing all these weird things. Now what's wrong? Why aren't you answering the phone?

What are you doing? What are you pissed about? What's going on? Stop being a baby and pick up the telephone.


Sounds a bit obsessed, doesn't it?
